With its intense golden yellow colour, the 2005 Gewurztraminer Furstentum Sélection de Grains Nobles sparkles impressively in the light. Even at first sniff, it exudes an impressive presence and openness. The beguiling sweetness of honey is perceived, coupled with a fruitiness reminiscent of apricots, mirabelles, caramelised apples and ripe pineapple. Distinct Gewürztraminer aromas such as rose and gingerbread remain pleasantly discreet in the background and give the wine an invigorating freshness.
This refreshment continues on the palate. The 2005 Gewurztraminer Furstentum Sélection de Grains Nobles delights with a balanced sweetness that is skilfully underpinned by the juicy fruit notes. A brilliant and sparkling acidity provides a well-structured body that ideally complements the sweetness of the wine. This fantastic sweet wine is so delicate that one would like to enjoy an extra glass!
We have also selected equally delicious food recommendations for this wine. Try a fine mango sorbet with a colourful selection of exotic fruits. Likewise, a gently poached peach or a well-made apple tart could perfectly accompany the wine. For a touch of the tropics, we recommend a pineapple gratin served with refreshing lime yoghurt ice cream. If you prefer a more savoury option, a casserole of fresh goat's cheese with fresh grapes and a hint of Gewürztraminer jelly could be your choice. Enjoy these exquisite combinations!
